Challenge Grant: Orthopedic Disease Estimation System Based on Daily and Gestural Movements Using a Hearable Device
Creativity
Summary

This study focuses on wearable devices that users are expected to wear constantly, aiming to develop a screening method using earphone-type wearable devices (hearable devices). Specifically, the goals for the first year are 1) screening for gait disorders, for the second year, 2) screening for temporomandibular joint disorders, and 3) screening for shoulder-related orthopedic disorders.
